How Manchester City could line up against Newcastle United

Ahead of Manchester City's trip to Newcastle United, Sports Mole looks at how the Citizens could line up.

Manchester City will be looking to extend their winning run of form when they head to Newcastle United on Tuesday evening.

The Citizens have won eight matches in a row in all competitions, half of those in the Premier League, to remain on course for a quadruple.

After seeing off Burton Albion and Burnley to progress in the EFL Cup and FA Cup respectively, focus now returns to the top flight in midweek.

Ahead of their trip to St James' Park, Sports Mole looks at how Pep Guardiola could set out his side.

Out: Vincent Kompany (muscle), Claudio Bravo (Achilles)
Doubtful: Benjamin Mendy (knee)

Guardiola was given the luxury of making eight changes between his side's two cup wins last week, retaining only Danilo, Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez.

Mahrez looks certain to be given a breather on Tuesday, meaning that Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling - who is currently on 99 goal involvements in his Premier League career - should start either side of the central striker.

Gabriel Jesus has filled in to good effect, but Sergio Aguero remains first choice and boasts a return of four goals in his 12 Premier League appearances against Newcastle - more than any player has scored against an opponent for a single club in the competition's history.

Elsewhere, Mendy is still not fully over a knee injury and needs to be eased back in, leaving a gap for either Fabian Delph or Oleksandr Zinchenko to fill.
